An Ex Kellogg’s Employee Did What?! You’re In For A Surprise

It's one "surprise" no one wants near their morning cereal. A Tennessee man is facing up to three years in prison for urinating on a Kellogg's cereal conveyor belt at a Memphis facility.

Last month, 49-year-old Gregory Stanton pleaded guilty to tampering with consumer products and was indicted by a grand jury in September. Stanton worked for the plant in 2014 and posted a video online in 2016 of him urinating on the conveyor belt. The video led the company to alert law enforcement and launched an investigation that involved the Food & Drug Administration.

The incident occurred at the Kellogg's Memphis, Tenn., plant during a period of strained labor relations and potentially affected Kellogg's Rice Krispies Treats, granola clusters and a few other puffed rice products that are no longer made. Rice Krispies cereal was not affected, the company said in 2016 when the footage first surfaced.
